First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?

    Remember Streetlamp LeMoose? There haven’t been any such memorable events on reddit in recent years. What about the ol’ switcheroo? You don’t see that anymore.

    They are indeed as you said, forgotten history to modern redditors. Back in the day, it was a closer community, and these events were discussed for days and referenced for months if not years.

    Like you said, reddit has been consistently losing it’s community aspect. I’m glad to have experienced it, but I think it’s time to move on.

      The ol’ switcheroo on lemmy would be a great way to teach people how to do inter-instance links! I don’t think it’s possible right now to link specific threads or comments, but it would definitely be a fun way to show how federation works.
